The man who died after falling from the roof of JP Morgan in Canary Wharf was an employee of the bank, a spokeswoman for JP Morgan has confirmed.

39-year-old Gabriel Magee was a vice president in the bank's corporate and investment bank technology division. He had been with JP Morgan since 2004, working in London since 2007, the bank confirmed.

No arrests have been made and the incident is so far being treated as non-suspicious.

A spokeswoman at JP Morgan said: "We are deeply saddened to have lost a member of the JP Morgan family at 25 Bank Street today. Our thoughts and sympathy are with his family and his friends.”

Police were called to JP Morgan's headquarters at Canary Wharf shortly after 8am after reports of a man falling from a height and landing on a ninth floor roof.

Both the London Ambulance Service and the London Air Ambulance attended but the man was pronounced dead at the scene.

Separately, it has emerged that the body of William 'Bill' Broeksmit, 58, who retired from Deutsche Bank last February, was found at his Kensington home on Sunday. He had hanged himself.

Broeksmit worked at Deutsche Bank between 1996 and 2001. He returned to the bank in 2008, serving in various senior roles until his retirement in February 2013, according to a memo from co-chief executives Anshu Jain and Juergen Fitschen.

Jain and Fitschen said in the memo that Broeksmit "was considered by many of his peers to be among the finest minds in the fields of risk and capital management" and called him "a dear friend and colleague to many of us who benefited from his intellect and wisdom".
